Housepoints Award<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n

At the end of this short week, it was wonderful to celebrate another of our youngest students in F2 earning their Bronze award for gaining 40 housepoints. Each of these awards are a fabulous celebration for individual, recognising their success and hard work in all areas of learning.<\/span><\/p>\n

I am certain that it won\u2019t be long until we are celebrating more names and presenting more of our individual housepoint awards to the Primary students of KIS!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Congratulations to :<\/span><\/p>\n

Housepoint Totals<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n

Despite the short week this week, Primary students have continued to shine bright and work hard to earn housepoints for their Houses. Altogether, they accumulated an impressive 732 housepoints which works out on average to be around 90 points per year group! Well done everyone!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Continuing the excitingly close race we\u2019ve seen since the start of this school year, this week did not disappoint with the winning House clinching victory by just 1 point! What an exciting battle we have on our hands this year!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

DOJO CHALLENGES<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”15241,15242″ img_size=”large”][vc_column_text]This week, the Dojo challenge champions were the Sapi Sunbears! It is wonderful to see so many familiar names of children completing the challenges every week, but I am always so pleased to see new names appearing as new students choose to take on the challenges and help their House earn extra points! Well done everyone who took part in any challenge last week. I can\u2019t wait to see what KIS do with the challenges this week!<\/span><\/p>\n

The Monthly Maths Challenge continues for another week with the September Maths Challenge.

For this week\u2019s Fun Dojo Challenge, we are excited to introduce a new challenge brought to us by Mr. Beresford. He has designed a challenge that he named \u201cLife Thru a Lens\u201d which is a photography competition, inviting our students to take a photograph of something linked to a theme. The theme for this first competition is \u201cA Pupil\u2019s View of Sabah\u201d. If you choose to take part, you need to take a photograph of how you view Sabah. This can be anything from where you live, to the wildlife found here, to the beautiful scenery and sunsets we see everyday. Winning entries from each House in each Key Stage will be displayed on the walls of the Primary Office. The closing date for photo entries is Friday 24th September. Good luck everyone!<\/span><\/p>\n

Secondary House News<\/i><\/b><\/h3>\n

This week saw SULUG continue their lead in the Merits totals with a healthy lead over GAYA whilst SAPI languish somewhat in 3rd place:-<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The weekly House competitions have had mixed uptake but what is clear is that GAYA are more consistent with the number of entries and as a result have a healthy enough lead to take the overall House competition lead.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This week has seen the start of the process to select the House Student Leadership Group.<\/p>\n

This will be led by a House President for each house from year 11, 12 or 13. They will work closely with the House Coordinator in running online and in person events throughout the year.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

They will in turn lead a team of House Year Ambassadors whose selection process has also started this week. We look forward to developing these student \u201csoft\u201d skills of public speaking, leading teams\/meetings, motivating and public speaking through this framework.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We look forward to some exciting competition in the coming months!!<\/p>\n
